What is the best way to help itchy ears? The inside of my ears are itching quite a bit, not too badly but enough to bother me. I thought about diluted tea tree oil but didn’t know if that would help. Please let me know, it is getting worse!

I have this too Kag. So far I’ve found nothing to help, I’ve heard people say SF722 but I take it and it doesn’t help. Also I notice my ears getting itchier when I take my coconut oil about 5 minutes after.

My ears are my built in alarm system… I always know when I have eaten something that my system does not tolerate such as sugar, yeast, yeast extract etc because my ears itch like crazy! This was actually my first indicator that I was eating “something” I had an intolerance too all the way back to 2005. I went to 4 MD’s, 1 Neurologist (for dizziness and blackouts), and 2 OBGYN’s trying to uncover what the problem was. It wasn’t until last year that I found a Natropathic Dr that a blood test for food allergies was done. Yeast was off the charts. I also can’t have broccoli, green beans, banana and kidney beans. Food allergy tests can actually be done from home and only cost about $100 or so US dollars. You may have had this done already but if not this is the company’s website that my ND goes through… http://meridianvalleylab.com/allergy-testing-3/allergy-tests-offered/food/foodsafe-panel-bloodspot

It won’t go away until the intestinal overgrowth be corrected. It is a consequence of it. It happens to most candida sufferers when they get the intestinal growth.

Is this because of toxins from the gut candida, or because of candida living in the ears? Sometimes I get a feeling that something is crawling on my scalp. Or I get what feels like bites on various spots on my body, one after the other. Or itchy in spots all of a sudden. Is this just the candida giving off toxins? Or is there actual candida living at those sites? Ie., does Kag have candida living in his ears?

Thank you!,

We all have candida living in our mucous membranes controlled by an active immune response.

What happens is the intestinal overgrowth suppresses that immune control. Then, candida causes symptoms in every part of the body it normally lives asymptomatic.

Treatment can be topical only(!!) with hydro-cortison, this really helps a lot. He gave me an azol (antifungal) for topical treatment, but it has no effect. Will ask him more about this and share this on the forum. He is a real MD, and a very recognised one too 🙂

Edit: This is my own experience, I don’t know the fully effect/sideeffect vs. c. albicans on taking a steroid topical on the skin over time regarding this.

BIG problem with me, and I’ve tried everything. What works best temporarily is Wally’s ear oil. (from Amazon) I don’t soak it way down in my ear, just a light layer. Helps with itching and flaking. My ears are my worst symptom by far.

Do you guys have it in your inner ear though? I don’t have any itching at all on my outer ear area?

And klips, I don’t have any reaction to any of the foods you listed except possibly dairy kefir. I stay away from it because it gives me acid reflux. I am still not convinced that this wasn’t from being outside the other day..

My doctor tried to prescribe me steriod ear drops for my ear flaking/wax buildup. I don’t think I like the idea of any steriod being in my ear. I can’t see it being very effective for preventing ear wax/flaking buildup(in my case). Think the only way to prevent the ear wax/flaking is to prevent the candida toxins(acetaldehyde etc..) being released in the ear.

I could see maybe the steriod drops helping with someone who has inner ear inflammation/itching. The inner ear inflammation might be causing the glands to be more active creating more flaking/wax? My inner ears don’t itch/not inflammed =don’t want to bother with the steriod drops.

Whats interesting is that as soon as the ringing in the ears started so did the ear wax build up. The very first day my ears started to ring was right after I had some green tea with honey( fructose/caffeine). I strongly believe its related to acetaldehyde production.
